This patch applies on top of Patrick McHardy's RTNETLINK
patches to add nested compat attributes. This is needed to maintain
ABI for sch_{rr|prio} in the kernel with respect to tc. A new option,
namely multiqueue, was added to sch_prio and sch_rr. This will allow
a user to turn multiqueue support on for sch_prio or sch_rr at loadtime.
Also, tc qdisc ls will display whether or not multiqueue is enabled on
that qdisc. When in multiqueue mode, a user can specify a value of 0 for
bands, and the number of bands will be created to match the number of
queues on the device.
This patch is to support the new sch_rr (round-robin) qdisc being proposed
in NET for multiqueue network device support in the Linux network stack.
It uses q_prio.c as the template, since the qdiscs are nearly identical,
outside of the ->dequeue() routine.

This adds capability for iproute2 to send nested attributes to the
kernel, while maintaining backwards compatibility.

Update the included version of the genetlink.h header to the multicast
group API and make the generic netlink controller part show multicast
groups where applicable. Also fix two typos.

In order to support these new flags add current
linux/if.h into the directory with the local copies.
This caused troubles with outdated redefinitions from net/if.h
so I've removed the dependency on it.

[GENERAL] nl_mgrp to crap if base multicast groups exceeded
The old scheme of bitmasks works only for the first 32 groups.
Above that the setsockopt scheme must be used.

Fix ip6tunnel.c to be fit with current ip command style.
Unlike other modules currently iptunnel (and ip6tunnel) is not
designed as protocol-independent because of unarranged structure
between IPv4 and IPv6.
Usage: ip -f inet6 tunnel { add | change | del | show } [ NAME ]
[ remote ADDR local ADDR ] [ dev PHYS_DEV ]
[ encaplimit ELIM ]
[ hoplimit HLIM ] [ tc TC ] [ fl FL ]
[ dscp inherit ]
Where: NAME := STRING
ADDR := IPV6_ADDRESS
ELIM := { none | 0..255 }(default=4)
HLIM := 0..255 (default=64)
TC := { 0x0..0xff | inherit }
FL := { 0x0..0xfffff | inherit }

[IPROUTE]: Add support for larger number of routing tables
Support support for 2^32 routing tables by using the new RTA_TABLE
attribute for specifying tables > 255 and intepreting it if it is
sent by the kernel.
When tables > 255 are used on a kernel not supporting it an error will
occur because of the unknown netlink attribute.

The controller is the only module using this at the moment.
Thomas has a sample user of genetlink that would fit here; bug him
for it.
